1275 enige swap
Posted: Sun Sep 10, 2023 9:57 am
Hello.
I know, I know, this topic has been discussed hundreds of times. But the more I read about it, the more confused I get. So please, bring some clarity to my overloaded brain.
The following situation: Morris Minor Saloon 1960, 948cc engine (damaged) and already fitted rib case gearbox.
Now, I want to swap my existing 1275ccm midget engine. (Yes, the flywheel has 6 screws)
What would be the easiest way to get the beast under the bonnet?
Especially the clutch discussion dazes me.
Buying the marina clutch kit (from ESM)?
Using a 1275 midget clutch?
Using a Minor clutch
????
Thanks for your help and patience in talking about engine swapping again.
Greetings from Hamburg.
